Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Drew Parsons <dpars...@debian.org>
* Package name : python-dmsh Version : 0.1.3 Upstream Author : Nico Schlömer <nico.schloe...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/nschloe/dmsh * License : MIT Programming Lang: Python Description : simple mesh generator inspired by distmesh dmsh: "The worst mesh generator you'll ever use." Inspired by distmesh, dmsh is slow, requires a lot of memory, and isn't terribly robust either. On the plus side, it's got a usable interface, is pure Python (and hence easily installable on any system), and if it works, it produces pretty high-quality meshes. Combined with optimesh, dmsh produces the highest-quality 2D meshes in the west. Example capabilities: * Primitives - circle, rectangle, polygon - halfspace * Combinations - difference - nonconstant edge length - union - intersection * Transformations - rotation, translation, scaling * Local refinement A simple-to-use tool for creating 2D meshes. Complements mshr (which is not actively developed) To be packaged under the Debian Science team alongside other related packages by the same author: meshio (mesh file conversion), pygalmesh (3D meshes) Some debate about source package name: dmsh? python-dmsh? python3-dmsh? A quick poll on irc indicates some preference for python-dmsh. Further debate welcome.
